"No!"

"Wait......" Li Dian suddenly exclaimed.

Han Meng said: "Death is coming, what else do you have to say?" ”

Li Dian said: "As far as I know, Jia Xu is the general division of the three armies of the Yan State, the general of the military division, and the official lord is higher than the first general in the Yan State, do you dare to disobey him lightly?" ”

"The military advisor was confused for a while, and was confused by the two of you, I will clean up the two of you on behalf of the military advisor, and the military advisor will be able to come to his senses. He won't blame me, and if the lord knows that I killed you two, he will only reward me. After all, you are also a famous general of the Wei army, hahaha......"

"In that case, please give each of us a weapon, and even if we are going to die, we will kill ourselves......"

"Do you think I'm stupid? Give you weapons so that you can struggle a little longer on the verge of death? Dream! The whole army obeyed the order and killed two of them for me......"

"Keep people under the knife...... Leave people under the knife......" Tian Chou galloped over on a fast horse and shouted loudly.

Han Meng saw Tian Chou galloping over, and immediately shouted: "You are not by the side of the military advisor, what are you doing here?" ”

"When the military advisor saw General Han leaving the camp, he knew General Han's intentions, and specially sent me to stop General Han. General Han, the military advisor has an order, don't hurt the lives of Li Dian and Le Jin, please let them go. Tian Chou said.

Han Meng's face sank, and he said: "Outside, the military order is not subject to it!" When I kill the two of them, I will plead guilty to the military advisor! ”

Tian Chou was shocked, and hurriedly took out a short knife from his arms, held it high in the air, and shouted: "Han Meng! This is a token given by the lord to the military advisor, and those who see this treasure knife will see the lord as if they see the lord! ”

Seeing this, Han Meng's face showed displeasure. Together with everyone, they turned over and dismounted, knelt on the ground, and bowed: "Han Meng knocks to see the lord!" ”

Tian Chou held a knife, pointed at Li Dian and Le Jin, and said to Han Meng: "Immediately release the two generals Li Dian and Le Jin!" ”

Li Dian and Le Jin saw this dramatic scene, and thought that Han Meng should be released this time. They all breathed a sigh of relief.

Unexpectedly, Han Meng actually said: "Forgive me!" ”

"You...... Do you even dare to disobey the orders of your lord? Tian Chou's face was full of surprise.

"Li Dian and Le Jin are famous generals of the Wei army, if they are released, it will definitely be a problem for our army, even if the military division does not want to kill them, they should not be released."

"And what do you want to do?"

"Escort the two of them back to the camp, take care of them for the time being, and wait for the destruction of the Wei State, and then it's not too late to make a decision!"

Tian Chou put away the short knife. turned over and dismounted, walked to Han Meng's side, and said with a smile: "General Han, you are really ...... That's not bad, at least I can give my hands on a mission. General Han, just do what you want. ”

Han Meng immediately stood up and waved his hand, and the soldier immediately threw out the big food that had been prepared for a long time. directly covered Li Dian and Le Jin inside, and then the rest of the wrestlers swarmed up. Li Dian and Le Jin were captured again.

Li Dian and Le Jin sighed for a while, but they were also fearless of life and death, and were escorted back by a few wrestlers, and when they walked to Han Meng's side, they glared at Han Meng and gritted their teeth with hatred.

After Li Dian and Le Jin were escorted away. Tian Chou let out a sigh of relief, and bowed to Han Meng: "General Han, it was all a military strategy's strategy just now, and there are many offenses if you want to cover it up. Please also have a lot of sea caps. ”

Han Meng smiled and said: "It's okay, go back and tell the military advisor, I will lead the army to pursue Xun Yu, and if there is any change, I will immediately notify the military advisor in the form of a flying pigeon pass."

Tian Chou nodded, separated from Han Meng, took a few people, and rushed back with Li Dian and Le Jin.

Han Meng caught up, and soon caught up with Nanlou, Zhang Nan, Ma Yan, Jiang Yiqu, Xian Yufu and others, joined forces, and headed in the direction of Dingtao.

Li Dian and Le Jin were captured again, and the previous arrogance was gone, for them, one capture was an accident, and it would be a shame to be captured twice. The two of them were escorted by Tian Chou and others, and when they saw that Tian Chou was leading the way in front, they picked the sheep intestine trail to walk, but they didn't take the big road, and it was not the way back to the Yan army camp, so they were very curious.

After walking for a while, Tian Chou stopped in a small forest, turned over and dismounted, and said to Li Dian and Le Jin, who were escorted by a few wrestlers behind him: "Okay, let's rest here, the military advisor just asked me to let the two of you go, I will take the two of you back now, the military advisor can't explain there, so let's hide here for a while, and when General Han pursues Xun Yu and has some gains, it will not be too late for us to go back, and then General Han will be able to offset the merits." ”

After Li Dian and Le Jin heard this, they all looked at each other and thought: "This is over, I just ask Lord Xiangguo to leave as much as possible, and don't be caught up by Han Meng's family." ”

Tian Chou said to the wrestlers: "You take good care of them here, I will go back to report to the military advisor first, and say that I have let Li Dian and Le Jin go." After General Han made meritorious service, I will come and take them away, and I will say that they were captured on the battlefield, so that the military adviser should have nothing to say. ”

Several wrestlers replied in unison: "No! ”

Li Dian glanced at Tian Chou, sighed, and said, "Jia Xu is very smart, how could he fall for your kind of fool?" You still let us go, and you were shown by Jia Xu in the province, and you won't be able to eat and walk around when the time comes. ”

Tian Chou said with a smile: "It seems that you still don't know our military advisor. The reason why our military advisors let you go is because you have generals, and if you are really unwilling to surrender, then the only way to kill you is to prevent future troubles. You know, even our lord jokingly called the military advisor a poisoner, which is enough to show how hard his heart is. If you miss this opportunity, then I'm sorry, I have to kill you. ”

"If you want to kill or chop, listen to and respect, we are not greedy for life and afraid of death." Le Jin snorted coldly.

Tian Chou laughed and said, "You are right, you are not afraid of death." But how would you feel if you were to see your family members die in front of you one by one? ”

"You...... Don't you dare! Li Dian was surprised.

"I don't dare, but the military advisor dare. There is nothing in the world that military advisors can't do, and they will do whatever it takes to pursue their goals. I advise you to surrender, because the province will affect your family and end up ruined. ”

Tian Chou turned over and got back on his horse. Pulling the reins of the horse, he said to Li Dian and Le Jin: "Think about it, I'll go first, and the military advisor is still waiting for me to return to my life." ”

After speaking, Tian Chou walked away.

Li Dian and Le Jin's hearts are extremely uncomfortable at this time, surrender. is disloyal to the King of Wei, if you don't surrender, your family will be destroyed. Nowadays, the hearts of the two people are very entangled.

Jia Xu was marching in the direction of Dingtao with the army, and when he saw Tian Chou coming from a distance, when he arrived at his side, he asked, "How are things going?" ”

Tian Chou said: "All the qiē were done according to the orders of the military advisor, and there were no mistakes. ”

"Very good......" Jia Xu's face raised a smile, and his eyes also radiated a hint of brilliance. Looking at the road ahead, I am full of hope for the future.

At the same time, the sky above Chen Liucheng was cloudy, and the wind was blowing under the hazy weather, and the raindrops the size of soybeans were falling continuously, and those who could not flow in time quickly accumulated on the ground.

The 40,000 troops led by Lin Nan were stationed outside the west gate of Chen Liucheng, and the storm and rain disturbed the camp that had just been built, and the wind was howling. The thunderstorm added up, and the water on the ground soon covered the soldiers' ankles.

Lin Nan rode a dark cloud on a snowy horse. Braving the storm and patrolling the camp, his clothes were already soaked, he looked at the busy soldiers in the barracks, couldn't help but look at the hazy sky, and scolded loudly: "Damn God, it's not raining for a long time." It's not raining at night, but at this time, you have no eyes! ”

At this time, Xun You, who was following behind Lin Nan, said: "Lord, go on like this." If it is only half an hour, it will inevitably become an ocean, and now General Zhao is leading people to rebuild the camp on the high slope, but the rain operation, but it is also difficult, the ground is slippery, the soil is soft, it is not easy to go down the village, it is better to retreat ten miles for the time being, there is a dense forest, you can cut down big trees, make a wooden house, in order to shelter from the wind and rain. ”

Lin Nan nodded and said, "Let's do it." ”

Xun You can order a few people behind him to give the order.

Lin Nan saw a soldier carrying food fall into a puddle, hurriedly jumped off his horse, ran straight over, helped the soldier up, and said with great concern: "Fortunately, you are fine, you should be more steady when you walk in the future, especially in such puddles." ”

When the soldier saw that the lord had come to greet him personally, he was moved, and when he saw the bag of grain that had been soaked in water, he said with a guilty face: "Lord, it's all my fault, it's all my fault, and I wet the grain......

"Hey, it doesn't matter, the people are fine, the grain is soaked, and then it will be dried when the sun comes out. Give me the grain, and I'll carry it with you! ”

As he spoke, Lin Nan snatched the food from the soldier's shoulder, picked it up and ran out.

When Xun You and the others saw it, they also dismounted and joined the team of transporting grain, and those soldiers who were originally transporting grain, seeing Lin Nan taking the lead in doing this kind of physical work, were all encouraged, and the more they worked, the more energetic they became, and after a while, they saved the grain soaked in the puddle, and then loaded it into a car, and transported it to the west one by one.

The weather at this time of year is very abnormal, the rainy season comes very early, and it rains at both ends in three days, making the ground wet all the time. It is precisely for this reason that Lin Nan did not attack for a long time, because it was raining on the entire original land, the muddy roads were not conducive to the use of cavalry, and Cao Cao stuck in Chen Liucheng, and gradually the two armies formed a confrontation.

The heavy rain fell for a whole day, and it didn't stop until evening, and if it weren't for the Yan army even if they moved the camp, it was estimated that they would have bathed in the camp.

The terrain on Chenliu's side is very low-lying, so when it rains, it is easy to accumulate water on the ground, and sometimes the water in particularly low-lying places can overflow the chest.

As soon as the rain stopped, Cao Cao climbed the wall of Chen Liucheng, looked at the wilderness outside the west gate, and saw that a country had already been formed, so he smiled and said: "It seems that God still has a little mercy on me, this rainstorm is really timely, look at the outside, when the water recedes and the ground dries up, it should take a few days, and Xun Yu should also come back in these days." ”

Turning around, Cao Cao got down from the city tower and walked down the streets of the city, with a smile on his face.

There is a world of difference between the inside and outside of the city, I don't know which of the Han Dynasty is the Taishou, when building the Chen Liucheng, the local low-lying terrain was taken into account, and the soldiers who could not get out of the rain were taken into account. He spent a lot of money to build some underground drainage pipes for Chen Liu, as long as there is a heavy rainstorm, the pipes in the city will be effective, and there is no need to worry about being flooded in water.

After returning to the Taishou Mansion, Cao Cao summoned Xu Shu, Liu Ye, Cheng Yu, Mao Jue, Man Chong, and Dong Zhao and inquired about the territory in the city one by one. Food, weapons and equipment are all asked clearly, and I have a bottom in my heart.

"Mr. Ziyang, what kind of car did you tell me about last time, and how is it being built now?" After Cao Cao asked about the logistics, he said to Liu Ye straight to the point.

"King Qiyu, it's a thunderbolt! Now more than 20 cars have been built, and if there are three more days, there will be no problem in rushing to produce 50 cars. Liu Ye replied.

Cao Cao said: "Well, do your best to make it." The water outside is very deep, and the water in the moat has also spread to the ground, if the Yan army wants to attack the city, don't wait for the ground to dry up, don't even think about it. Everyone will have to work harder during this time, and when this catastrophe is over, this king will definitely not treat you badly. ”

"Serve the king, dare not do your best!" Everyone said in unison.

"Hmmm! Go down, all of you. Dong Zhao, Man Pet, and Mao Jue stayed. ”

Thereupon. Xu Shu, Liu Ye, Cheng Yu and others all left, leaving only Dong Zhao, Man Chong, and Mao Jue in the room.

"Three adults, now the grain and grass are only left to last for seven days, and after seven days, our army is about to face the danger of running out of food, what can you do. Can you turn the seven days' bread into ten days? Cao Cao glanced at the three people in front of them and asked slowly.

Dong Zhao, Man Chong, and Mao Jue glanced at each other, and after looking at each other, the three of them all knew it. The most effective way is to withhold grain and grass, but no one dares to speak up. Because, once the grain and grass are deducted, the soldiers will not have enough to eat, and it is very likely that they will mutiny.

"I will not blame you." Cao Cao said.

Man Zhong took the lead and said: "King, if you want to use seven days' food to become ten days, then the only way is to deduct the soldiers' food and grass, and then embezzle a part of the savings to pay for the three days of extra fertility. ”

Cao Cao naturally knew, but he hadn't thought of an effective way yet, so he asked: "In this way, the soldiers will not have enough to eat, and if there is a mutiny, it will be worth the loss." ”

Man Zhong continued: "The king, even so, but the ten days of food can be enough, the king only asked the minister how to make up the ten days' food, but did not ask me how to prevent the soldiers from rebelling, so the minister only answered the question asked by the king, as for whether the soldiers will rebel, that is another question. ”

Cao Cao likes to be full of this strategist, he is very interesting to speak, and he is always able to understand the feelings of others. He smiled and asked, "How, then, can we scrape together enough food for ten days without mutiny?" ”

Man Chong thought for a moment and replied, "The king only needs to kill one person." ”

"Oh? Kill whom? Cao Cao asked curiously.

Man Zhong said: "Just kill one minister!" ”

After Dong Zhao and Mao Jue heard this, they were shocked, they both pricked up their ears, and squinted at Cao Cao, wanting to see what the reaction was.

After Cao Cao listened, a trace of brilliance flowed out of his eyes, and he seemed to have understood the meaning of what Man Zhong said, so he said with a smile: "Berning, I understand, thank you for the advice!" ”

Man Chong said modestly: "The carving insect skill can only be laughed at by the king." ”

"Hehe, in short, Mr. Berning still solved the doubts of Ben Wangxin. Go down first! ”

"No!"

Dong Zhao, Mao Jue and Man Chong walked out of the room together, and after taking two steps, the two of them asked in unison, "Berning, what did you mean by what you just said?" How did we not figure it out? ”

Man Zhong smiled: "What is my current position?" ”

"Praise the military captain, the marching master, the military division sacrificial wine, plus the general promotion officer of grain and grass." Mao Jue was the first to answer.

"Then you still don't understand?" Man Pet asked rhetorically.

Dong Zhao smiled and said, "I understand." ”

Mao Juhu said suspiciously: "I still don't understand, what is the connection between this and the king's problem?" ”

Dong Zhao said: "There is a great connection. Since you don't understand, you just wait and see, and within three days, you will definitely understand. ”

Mao Jue didn't ask anymore, he didn't like to beat around the bush, so he said, "If you don't say it, forget it." ”

Man Zhong smiled: "From a moment on, my grain and grass chief transfer officer should be replaced......"

After hearing this, Mao Jue thought about it in detail, then laughed and said, "I understand." Berning, I really admire you more and more. ”

"Insect carving skills. Nothing to speak of. ”

Half an hour later, Cao Cao called Wang Yuan, a grain manager under Man Chong, and said to him: "Man Boning has been overworked recently, occasionally feeling cold, unwell, and needs to rest for a few days. For the time being, you will replace Man Boning as the chief officer of grain and grass, and now go and count the grain stored in the granary, and then come and report to me. ”

Wang Yu said "promise" and hurriedly replied: "King Qiqi, the grain and grass are only enough to last for seven days, and the ministers count them every day, so keep them in mind. ”

Cao Cao let out a "hmm", looked at Wang Yuan, and secretly thought: "Such a conscientious grain officer. It's a shame to kill. But if they are not killed, there will not be enough food and grass to sustain them for ten days......"

After thinking for a while, Cao Cao finally relented and said to Wang Gao: "From tomorrow, change the seven-day food to the ten-day maintenance, and change the big bowl to the small bowl, and save the urgent need." ”

Wang Yuan was shocked and hurriedly said, "King, if that's really the case." If the soldiers are unwilling, they are afraid that they will lead to a mutiny......"

"This king has his own way to resolve it. and thou shalt do as the king commands. ”

Wang Yuan had no choice but to comply, and with a "promise", he withdrew from Cao Cao's room.

The next morning, when the soldiers had breakfast, there was much less food than before. And it was sparse, and under the leadership of several tun chiefs, the guy on duty that day was arrested for questioning. The man said that this was the order of Wang Gao, the new chief of grain and grass, and he just did what he was told.

As a result, the soldiers who gathered to make trouble rushed directly into the barracks of Wang Yuan, the new chief of grain and grass promotion. He arrested Wang Yuan and brought him to the Taishou Mansion, asking Cao Cao to reprimand him severely.

Wang Yu couldn't say it, he couldn't say that Cao Cao asked him to do this, so he didn't say a word until he was taken to Cao Cao by the soldiers, and then he said: "King, the minister is not guilty......"

Cao Cao nodded slightly, summoned Wang Gao alone, and said to Wang Gao: "This king also knows that you are not guilty, and it is this king who is guilty." However, once this king died, the Wei state would inevitably collapse. Therefore, I can only ask you to die in place of this king. Now everyone knows that you are withholding military rations, and if this king does not kill you, it will not be enough for the people to be angry. Once a mutiny is caused, the Wei state will inevitably collapse. Therefore, your death is for the sake of the Wei State, and for the sake of this king. After you die, your wife and children will be raised by the king for you, what else do you have to worry about? ”

After hearing this, Wang Gao understood that he had to die, and he no longer ran away, bowed to Cao Cao, and said: "King, please take care, Wang Yuan is gone!" ”

After speaking, Wang Yuan hit the pillar and died on the spot.

After Cao Cao saw it, he also felt very sorry, sighed, and said slowly: "It's really a righteous man!" ”

Subsequently, in order to appease the anger of the soldiers, Cao Cao asked people to get rid of Wang Yuan, and framed Wang Yuan for stealing grain and grass, resulting in the army without food for ten days, and asked everyone to unanimously cut down on food and clothing, which was unanimously agreed by the soldiers.

As a result, Cao Cao reinstated himself as the chief of the grain and grass chief of the city, and actively prepared for the upcoming battle in the city......

Twenty miles outside the city, in a dense forest on a high slope, soldiers wearing hats made of leaves were standing at the edge of the woods, watching every move outside the woods.

In the woods, there are patches of big trees that have been cut down, and the soldiers of the Yan army have made unremitting efforts to use those tree trunks to open up a large open space in this dense forest, and set up camp in the woods, build wooden houses, and can not help but shelter from the wind and rain, and can also hide the army.

Of course, it is impossible for the 40,000 army to hide in one place, because this forest is only enough for 5,000 people to hide, and this is not only Lin Nan's command post, but also the Yan army's grain base. If you don't look down from the sky, no one would have imagined that there would be 5,000 people hiding in the Yan army.

Lin Nanduan sat in the wooden house, there was a small tree stump in the house, which was used as a temporary table, with a map spread on it, and said to Xun You, Guo Jia, and Zhao Yun who were around him: "Although the rainstorm has stopped now, the sky is still cloudy, according to my calculations, this heavy rain should not stop here, and it will inevitably rain again." But Chen Liucheng is in front of him, if it is delayed because of the heavy rain, it will bring Cao Cao a chance to breathe. Do you have any quick ways to break the enemy? ”

Guo Jia thought for a while and said slowly: "Lord, last year, the entire original drought was abnormal, and this year has just entered the summer, and in less than seven days, two heavy rainstorms have fallen in a row, and it seems that it has entered the rainy season ahead of schedule. subordinates thought. Chen Liucheng is low-lying, and if it is attacked by water, it will definitely save our army the trouble of attacking the city. ”

"Water attack?" After hearing this, Lin Nan thought for a moment, and then said: "The Yellow River is a hundred miles away from here, if you dig a channel." It's too labor-intensive and material-intensive. ”

Guo Jia smiled and held a branch, pointed on the map and said, "Lord, please look!" ”

"This is Suishui...... This is Bianshui...... This is the Langtang Canal, Junyi County is the convergence point of the three rivers, now the heavy rain is continuous, the water level of the river is rising, Chen Liucheng is low-lying, if you can dig a large pond in Junyi County, the three rivers are communicated together, and then cut off its source. When the torrential rain falls again, it will inevitably form a ferocious flood, and once the flood overflows the temporary embankment, it will inevitably pour down and go straight to Chen Liucheng. Chen Liucheng is low-lying, high and low around, and the water flows through the vicinity, so if you want to flood Chen Liu. Alone. ”

Xun You and Zhao Yun, who were surrounding the stump, nodded after hearing this. At the same time, he said: "Fengxiao's plan is very clever, not only does it save the trouble of fighting with the Wei army, but also can easily conquer Chen Liucheng, which is really a double win, and his subordinates seconded it." ”

Lin Nan glanced at Guo Jia and asked, "Dig the big pond." How much manpower and how much time does it take? ”

"10,000 people is enough, one day is enough." Guo Jia replied.

Lin Nandao: "Very good, Tai Shici's 10,000 troops just happened to be stationed in Junyi County, which just came in handy." Bong-hyo. You can go to Junyi County in person, let Tai Shici dig the reservoir on the spot, and let's have a flooded Chen Liu! ”

Guo Jia nodded and continued: "Lord, in the past few days, please also ask the lord to make preparations for flood control, and also spread the word to all armies, try to find high ground to camp, cut down trees to make light boats, in case of emergency. ”

"Well, the matter of shipbuilding will be handed over to Gan Ning, Hire, and Wang Wei to do it." Lin Nan said with a smile.

After the meeting ended, Guo Jia left the barracks on horseback and went straight to Junyi County with twenty or thirty horsemen, while Lin Nan asked Chen Lin to write an order, tie it to the pigeon's leg, and the flying pigeon passed the book to Tai Shici, asking him to obey Guo Jia's orders.

After nightfall, the news of Xu Huang's capture of Hangu Pass and occupation of Hongnong was transmitted by Xun Chen. The reason was that Xu Huang's carrier pigeon did not know that Lin Nan had arrived in Chenliu, and flew back to the camp in Juan County directly.

When Lin Nan got Xu Huang's disappearance of occupying Hongnong and Hangu Pass, he seemed very happy, but at the same time, he also felt a little puzzled as to why Ma hadn't withdrawn his army, and secretly thought: "Ma is no longer able to move eastward, but he is stuck in the Tiger Prison Pass, do you want to see which one is stronger, me or Cao Cao?" ”

Subsequently, Lin Nan personally wrote a letter to Xu Huang, warning Xu Huang that he must strictly abide by Hangu Pass, and if he encounters a horse, let him not let the horse go from Hangu Pass. After that, it is handed over to the carrier pigeon.

When it was time to eat, it was drizzling again, and the weather was cool, but there was also a lot of humidity.

Gan Ning, Ping, and Wang Wei were all surprised when they received Lin Nan's shipbuilding order.

"General Gan, what does the lord mean by letting us build ships now? On the 6th ground, how do you use the boat? Wang Wei asked puzzled.

"Just obey the order, the king has his own idea, we don't need to ask." Gan Ning replied slowly.

Wang Wei didn't get Gan Ning's answer, so he turned his head to look at Hire, and asked, "General, what do you say the lord asked us to make a boat?" ”

"Shipbuilding, of course, is used to sit." Captain Wang, don't think about it if you can't figure it out, in fact, General Gan and I can't figure it out either. The lord is urging urgently, let's let the soldiers start construction overnight, and first make a batch of light boats. ”

……

Guo Jia led people to walk on the muddy road, and just walked not far away, it rained heavily, and the group did not go to avoid the rain, but rushed towards Junyi County non-stop.

In Junyi County, Tai Shici had already fallen asleep, and although the storm outside was roaring, it couldn't wake him up from his sweet dream. When he led his troops to Junyi County, the county commander abandoned the city and fled, and took a large amount of property and grain with him, leaving the granary in the county seat empty. He was so angry that he led a thousand light cavalry in pursuit, and finally killed the county commander, and took back the grain, and also robbed a large amount of property.

According to Tai Shici's understanding, this county commander is insatiable, bullying, often beating the people, and acting as a prestige, some people can't look past it, and want to sue the county order, and the county order will send people to kill the people who want to sue him, and rob the people's property in the county seat.

To say that the territory of Yanzhou has always been where the people live and work in peace and contentment. But in fact, this is not the case, and there will always be some very few dog officials and corrupt officials.

Therefore, as soon as Tai Shici arrived in Junyi County, he immediately opened a warehouse to release grain and property. The people of Junyi County also supported Tai Shici's army very much, and they also supported the Yan army.

"General...... General ......"

Tai Shi Ci was still asleep when he heard someone outside the door calling his name. He immediately woke up, jumped out of bed, drew his sword from the head of the bed, and shouted at the door, "Who? ”

"General, it's me, Hou Cheng!"

"Hou Cheng? What's the matter with you? ”

Hou Chengdao: "General, I was originally keeping vigil, but Guo Junshi suddenly called the door. I also want to see the general, the last general dares to wake up the general, and if you are offended, please ask the general to do a lot of Haihan. ”

Tai Shi Ci said: "Where is Guo Junshi now?" ”

"I have arrived at the county hall and am waiting for the general in the county hall to say that there is something very important." Since Hou Cheng surrendered to the Yan army, he and Song Xian became Tai Shi Ci's generals, and he was the tiger of Tai Shi Ci. It's a palpitation, not to mention that Tai Shici is not bad for the two of them. I have never had two hearts.

"Got it, I'll be there after I put on my clothes, please wait a while."

Tai Shi Ci closed his weapon and got dressed, then went out and saw that it was cloudy and rainy outside. kept going, and then scolded: "This thief God, I have been crying and mourning, and I have no interest in it." ”

After walking for a while, Tai Shici came to the county government hall. Seeing that Guo Jia was anxiously waiting there, and his whole body was soaked, he hurriedly asked, "Strategist, are you ......?"

"General Taishi, the lord has an order, let you and his subordinates all obey me, from now on, you must obey my words." Guo Jia directly interrupted Tai Shici's words and said.

Tai Shici stretched his hand forward and asked, "Is there an order written by the lord himself?" ”

Guo Jia was stunned for a moment and replied, "No!" ”

"Then I'm sorry, I can't listen to you, it's okay for you to be a staff officer. You rushed over from the lord's side dozens of miles away, and it rained, is it just to sue me about this? Tai Shi Ci asked rhetorically.

Guo Jiadao: "Of course not, I have important things that General Taishi needs to complete with me." ”

"Then say it!" Tai Shi Ci said very bluntly.

Guo Jia was about to say the plan to flood Chen Liu, Tai Shici listened to it, nodded vigorously, and kept "um", when Guo Jia finished speaking, he held his cheeks and said, "Hmm...... This is a clever plan, so let's ask Guo Junshi to rest, and we will implement it early tomorrow morning. ”

Guo Jia is also sleepy, not to mention that there is only one hour left before dawn, he must have a good rest, and tomorrow he can have more energy to direct the excavation of the reservoir.

Early the next morning, the rain stopped all night, and Tai Shici also got up very early, and not long after he got up, he saw Song Xian running over, and asked, "What is so panicked?" ”

"The lord's flying pigeon biography!" Song Xian handed a note to Tai Shici.

After Tai Shici read it, he laughed and said: "Guo Fengxiao, that kid, what he said is still true, it seems that I was too rude to him last night." ”

After finishing speaking, Tai Shici rewrote a letter, handed the letterhead to Song Xian, and asked Song Xian to use the flying pigeon to send it out. He himself walked straight to Guo Jia's room, raised his hand and knocked on the door twice.

"Knock Knock Knock ......"

Tai Shici waited outside the door for a while, but no one in the door responded.

So he pushed open the door of the room and saw that the whole room was empty, Guo Jia's dirty clothes were on the ground, but Guo Jia was gone. He said suspiciously: "What about Guo Fengxiao? ”

Tai Shici turned the entire county government upside down, but no trace of Guo Jia was found, and when he asked the soldiers on duty last night, they all said that they didn't see Guo Jia. Just when Tai Shici was still worried about Guo Jia's accident, he saw Guo Jia walking in from outside the county office covered in dust.

"Bong-hyo? Where did you go? Let me find it for a while, do you know how worried I am about you? As soon as Tai Shici saw Guo Jia, he immediately greeted him.

Guo Jia patted the dust on his body and said with a smile: "What do I have to worry about?" I'm not a kid anymore. ”

If Guo Jia was still a stunned young man in Luoyang Shisun Mansion back then, then Guo Jia, who is standing in front of Tai Shici today, seems to have become a real wise man who is in charge of his own affairs. Whenever Guo Jia recalls the absurd thing of giving up his life in order to become famous four years ago, he feels too naïve.

Fortunately, Guo Jia met Lin Nan at that time, otherwise his head would have fallen to the ground, where would he still be able to stand in front of Tai Shici.

In terms of age, Tai Shici is four years older than Guo Jia. And he is also more precocious than Guo Jia, so from the beginning, Tai Shici treated Guo Jia as a little brother.

"Where the hell did you go? The lord's flying pigeon has arrived, and I want to obey you, if you are gone, how can I substitute for the lord? Tai Shici was very curious about Guo Jia's disappearance in a short time. Then he asked again.

"I couldn't sleep, so I went out of town to see the terrain, and I had already chosen the large reservoir that we were going to dig today. Now, you take your subordinates, let them bring their digging tools, and go to the southwest twenty miles of the county seat to excavate, where I have already made a mark...... Yes...... I'm so sleepy, I haven't closed my eyes for a day and a night. I really want to get some sleep. General Taishi, I'll take care of the rest......"

After speaking, Guo Jia yawned and walked towards his room with hazy eyes.

Tai Shici immediately complied, leaving 1,000 people to defend the city, and he took 9,000 people with digging tools and went to the place Guo Jia said.

At dusk, Guo Jia woke up from his sleep. After sleeping in the middle of the day, he stretched out. After a simple meal, he asked the soldiers to prepare a horse for him, mounted it, and galloped out of the city.

When Guo Jia arrived at his destination, he saw that the soldiers were digging in full swing, and a huge pit had already appeared in the place he had planned. It's several feet deep, and it's getting deeper. And around the big pit, they were also compacted with earth, and stones were brought from nearby to mix it. Gradually, a thick wall was built.

Tai Shi Ci took the lead in the work, and was digging at the bottom of the pit with a shovel, and his body was covered with mud, making him look like a clay man.

Guo Jiazema inspected the surroundings, and when he reached the opposite side, he rushed to Tai Shici, who was engaged in excavation work at the bottom of the deep pit, and shouted: "General Taishi, it's okay, please come up, dig the river in a while, and you can store water!" ”

When Tai Shi Ci heard the shout, he ordered his soldiers to go up the steep slope to the ground, and then start to divert the water from the confluence of three rivers a hundred meters away.

The sky was dark, the sky was cloudy, the wind began to howl, and a new round of thundershowers was coming, and with the joint efforts of many soldiers, the river was finally successfully brought here. After that, Guo Jia took Tai Shici and other 9,000 people to carry boulders from all over the place, and sank them to the bottom of the river with large packages, and so on many times, and finally succeeded in cutting off the river.

"Boom!"

A loud thunderclap rang through the sky, lightning fell, lighting up the night sky, and torrential rain poured down.

Many soldiers were smiling when they saw the results of their hard work, and although they experienced the storm, their hearts were very satisfied.

Guo Jia wiped the raindrops on his face, and said to Tai Shi Ci with a smile: "General Tai Shi, leave some people stationed here, and the rest go back to rest for the time being, and notify the people near the county seat, let them all move to a high place, and carry three or four days' rations." ”

Tai Shici nodded, and then did as Guo Jia instructed, and asked the soldiers to take people everywhere to transfer the people on the road from here to Chenliu.

At the same time, in Yingchuan County, the sudden rainstorm completely delayed the attack of Zhang Liao's army, after a few days of local cleaning work, most of the counties in the entire Yingchuan County were ordered to surrender, or abandon the city and flee, except for Yangzhai City, which had 7,000 Wei troops who had not captured for the time being, Zhang Liao's 10,000 army almost swept the entire Yingchuan County in a few days. However, due to the heavy rain, it was not conducive to the battle, so Zhang Liao adopted the strategy of besieging the city, and stationed troops at the four gates of Yangzhai City, blocking the water and draining it.

The torrential rain was pouring outside, but Zhang Liao was as calm as water in the big tent, he was holding a book of Sun Tzu's Art of War and was studying it carefully.
